knob and turn it gently in the direction of the arrow until you feel a slight resistance. This takes up any slack in the film cartridge. Then fold back the rewind crank.

*Do not load the camera in bright sunlight. If no other shade is available, shade the camera from the sun with your body while loading. This will reduce any chance ot spoiling your t irst exposures due to fogging.

Make two blank exposures to dispose of the first few inches of film which were exposed during loading. When advancing the film , make sure that the rewind knob rotates in the direction opposite the arrow. This indicates that the film has been loaded correctly and is being advanced. The frame counter should now indicate " 0" exposure . Advance the film one more frame and you are ready to take the first picture.

*At the end of a film, the film-winding may stop half-way between frames. The AW-l may not function furthermore. In such a case, turn the AW-l power switch off. Take the film out and load a new film. Advance the film manually one frame. The AW-l should then function normally.
